Suddenly, the men in the car looked at each other, guarded and on high alert.
"What is your end game?"
Swallowing hard, the man sitting next to Flossie Wright gazed at her, fraught with confusion and suspicion.
The atmosphere within the car seemed to become tense. They were on pins and needles, as though something was ready to explode at any moment.
Lifting her eyes, Flossie’s casual glance swept over their anxious faces. She leaned lightly against the car door with a cool voice interlaced with a hint of provocation, "Do you think I can make him worry about me?"
Without a doubt, the "him" she was referring to was Glenn Hutchinson.
Would you believe it?
Not likely.
However, these words seemed to strike a nerve in their uncertain hearts. They were fully aware that this reasoning didn’t hold much credibility, but in conjunction with Flossie’s unpredictable actions, it somehow managed to convince them otherwise.
But if she were truly acting this recklessly for a man...
She is absolutely insane!
"Aren’t you afraid of what we could do to you?"
The man sitting next to her hesitated before asking tentatively. His eyes remained fixed on Flossie, desperately trying to decipher any kind of insight from her face.
Flossie raised an eyebrow, a hint of a smile gracing her lips. Still and poised, her brazen air could not be concealed, "Do you think you’re capable?"
All their earlier attacks had been blocked by her. Given their limited number, what harm could they possibly do to her?
"Do you believe you will have a chance to escape once we take you back?"
The man felt patronized, his irritation mounting as he shot back with an aggravated tone.
Did she consider this all a game?

Even with some capability, they should still outnumber her. Did she truly believe she could escape with such ease, even if she were to be taken back?
Ridiculous! She’s utterly naive!
Still, they were uncertain whether she was genuinely foolish or was simply playing them...
"You’re welcome to try."
Flossie sat unperturbed, blatantly ignoring them with a rebellious twinkle in her eyes.
The men in the car caught her words loud and clear; they were nearly driven to punching her out of frustration!
They had never encountered such an insolent and venomous woman!
An absolute nightmare!
But they didn’t dare lay a finger on her. With one cold glanced from Flossie, they were effectively silenced.
On Flossie’s admonition, the driver didn’t dare to take detours, simply choosing a more roundabout route to avoid her prying eyes. As the evening drew closer, they finally arrived back at their Headquarters.
The location was fairly remote. The dilapidated buildings matched the desolate surroundings perfectly; it resembled a place set for demolition with scarce signs of residents. Naturally, it was an ideal venue for their illegal activities.
As soon as the car came to a halt, a few men came over from other vehicles. A burly man took a deep drag of his cigarette, then menacingly yelled towards the half-open car window. His ferocious expression was so intimidating that it was as if the word "ruffian" was written on his face in block letters, his posturing hardly leaving anything to the imagination.
